I think my Goodwinch TDS winch needs a bit of TLC after the wet winter.
I have done a search on here and Google and can find very little, if any, information. More than happy to do the work as I am pretty competent mechanically and electrically so really looking for any pointers, gotcha's or even a guide on what to do. I have the grease, Ramonol Advanced Marine Grease, on it's way. Anything else I should consider getting in advance ?

Had a look on the site but it seems all over the place
I think the team that did the Glasgow 2014 site have been at it 
I will give him a ring to see what he has to say. Bob 2015 Jaguar XE240 R Sport - goes like ....... !! 2013 Defender 90 CSW - sold 2009 Defender 110 Double Cab - sold 2001 TD5 90 CSW - offroad project - sold to a forum member 2011 Porsche Boxster - for the sunny days ! |

You may need a few gaskets but other than that thats about it unless you upgrade to a bow 2

Eventually got to the 'real' Goodwinch site via a torturous route using Yell.com !
No service kits listed so have emailed Dave to see if there is such a thing. Bob 2015 Jaguar XE240 R Sport - goes like ....... !! 2013 Defender 90 CSW - sold 2009 Defender 110 Double Cab - sold 2001 TD5 90 CSW - offroad project - sold to a forum member 2011 Porsche Boxster - for the sunny days ! |

Maybe a phone call will reveal the info you need. I have been thinking about getting my 12000 winch serviced as well, so would be interested in the outcome. 1999 Defender TD5 110

I will keep you informed
I am told that it only takes a couple of hours to do the work but want to make sure I have the parts I am likely to need ready - it may be called into service again next bank holiday.

Don;t know if you know David Lovejoy? (Nonimouse on various forums), what he doesn't know about winches isn't worth knowing, and he's down your neck of the woods... J23 M5

Hi DJ
I don't David L but have heard the name somewhere ? Just spoken to Dave B at Goodwinch. He advised me to strip the winch first and then see if I needed any parts, he thought that at most I may need a couple of gaskets. He gave me loads of advice on what needed to be done and , more importantly, told me NOT to strip the brake system down as they are a real pain to set up. Excellent service from Dave and he added that he or one of his staff would help me over the phone if I have issues.

Is it same David Lovejoy that writes for LRM? I'm also looking for someone to strip and service the Warn XD9000i fitted to my G4 D2. Current
